This tree has gotten so big, I can hardly see the swing set any more. It sure is green!
We woke up to a wet deck because it was raining out. Just a light rain. It was already 55 degrees when I got up. My day sure started out a little scary. I was leaving to go to my 10 am doctor appt. Got in the car at 9:40. I looked and saw that I only had 4 miles left to go on this tank of gas. I forgot that before we went camping I was trying to wait to go get gas with Bill for $1 off per gallon. Well, this morning I about panicked. We have a gas station 2 miles away, but it is in the wrong direction, so I wouldn’t have made it to my appointment on time. I backed out of the driveway and bumped into the big garbage can. I stopped and put it back in its place. Whoops, I hope Bill wasn’t seeing me on the Blink lol. I got to the speedway gas station which was four miles away. Kenzie was calling, but I didn’t have time to answer. It took a minute to figure out how to work these new pumps. I did, then put $4 in and left right away. I had 8 minutes to make it to my appt. I got out on the road quickly, then made all but one stoplight. I ended up getting there with a minute to spare. I got in about three minutes after I got there. It was a good appt. The doctor thinks I am having bad leg pain because of the statin I am taking. She is having me quit it for 2 weeks to see if that’s the cause. She answered all of my questions and we had a good talk besides. I left there and thought I would stop somewhere and get a breakfast sandwich. Then I thought about having all of the stuff I need at home to make one, so went home and did that instead. It was extra delicious and I sure saved some money.
I went outside and saw the butterfly I put in the garden had fallen. I got some ties and hung it up properly. Then I washed out the bird baths and filled all four of them. I filled the jelly containers too. I sat on the deck and read my Bible after that and prayed the prayers in my books for my grandchildren and for Bill. I have been doing that for 5 years already. They are such great prayers and scriptures that go with them. I add some more kids too that I know don’t have grandparents to pray for them. Kit Kat stayed by me the whole time and didn’t really want to move when I tried putting the cushions away. She did thought when I pulled the final cushion away. I put my new Smart Cart away because I didn’t want it blowing if a thunderstorm came suddenly. The sky looked really dark. I quickly picked the rhubarb and cut the leaves off. It started sprinkling lightly. I put Acid mix around the blueberry plants. Then I headed inside. I got in the house and it started down pouring. We sure needed a good rain. My plants are really happy now. I walked around and looked afterwards and the ferns are multiplying again this year. I love how ferns are so pretty and more keep coming.
We ate sirloin burgers, corn and fried potatoes for dinner. I called Sue to catch up and I also called Marie to catch up. Had some real good conversations. I called Barb to get her prices on the hearts she makes so Sue could let her sister in law know. Then I worked on my blog.
